Routing, Bridging and Switching Presented by: Radia Perlman Sunday, March 19, 2006 - 15:00-17:00 ==================================== Abstract: This session demystifies the conceptual issues in moving data across multiple hops. We give an overview of, and contrast the functionality of these technologies, including an overview of link state routing (used in OSPF and IS-IS), spanning tree (used in bridging and switching), distance vector (used in RIP), and path vector (used in BGP).
